Straighter Line
Design and implementation of the marketing website for the launch of a new concept in online, self-paced education.
Objective
An updated marketing website was needed for the launch of a new company to clearly introduce prospective customers to what was a new concept in online education.
The website would be the primary means for generating sales, so clear calls to action were desired. Of equal importance was the need to convey a professional, reputable image to help make users comfortable that this was not a "degree mill."
Process
Working closely with the director of marketing the design concept took shape through a highly iterative process.
Branding developed by a creative agency was reained, but the site itself had to be reworked.
Solution
A design was finalized in Photoshop, then I sliced it up and programmed it in stages while keeping in constant view of stakeholders.
Content was developed in an agile fashion with a focus on organic SEO. The final site was executed using a HTML/CSS/ColdFusion/XML stack.
